Muffleman Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Got mine this morning, the missus did think it strange that I offered to nip to sainsburys Am liking it too Very much like Gran Turismo for the 360 but with damage etc and somewhat better graphics of course. Excellent game Might be giving BF2142 a rest for a bit now I have this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I've been caining this all weekend.. got a Golf GTI which is basically earning the cash.. and a (Power Index) 900bhp Trail kitted Supra... so powerful in fact I can't really get it flat out even on the track with the banked corner... it's just wants to slide I haven't read the rest of this thread yet, but I'm sure someone has already posted this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Now my Supra is nearly complete... I need to start buying sensible cars to do the actual tournaments now.. I'm loving it though... it's like the days of GT2 Can't wait to get back to it.... I think we need a Supra race sometime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I think we need a Supra race sometime? yup an 8 supe race sounds good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harps Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Definitely up for a Supe race I have 2 MkIV's now - my main one and one I bought on a whim to play with the graphics editor. Seems pretty good (though takes a while to get anywhere). I was going to try to do the Castrol livery but after looking at pics the amount of work scared me. Not sure what to do with it now! BTW, my Live name is Harpsy if anyone wants to add me to friends. Not taken the game on Live yet, I'm still using most of the aids to keep me on the track, so the thought of being embarressed by people who can actually race properly scares me.

edd_t Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 what aids do people use??? The only one I use is ABS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 what aids do people use??? The only one I use is ABS. I took the early veilside Supra (circa 870bhp?) out with just ABS and couldn't stop smiling. I was on my mates Xbox and wouldn't go home lol. No-one else could handle the thing but with me being the only Supra driver in the room I showed them hows its done... sideways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Pah, ABS switched off for me I'm not on Live yet, but might have to change that just for Forza 2. Been running round in my Cooper S and '73 Carrera RS mostly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I dont use any aids at all and just over 50% dosnt seem that big a game GT4 took me ages to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I Won The AB FLUG supra. my dream car :):), I have a good 40 cars at the moment and im about half way through the game i think.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 No aids here! - Stock looking supra with all the engine mods not suspension, tires etc - bit of a handful. Reminds me of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_supra Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I love the graphics section, I seem to be spending most of my time in there! I already have done a MKiii in Taisan race graphics, my mkiv in the red and white Sard graphics, and am in the process of doing an R34 skyline in the Xanavi graphics:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 is anyone else having problems uploading their photos to the forza website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 is anyone else having problems uploading their photos to the forza website? Yep I did about 5 last night and two of them didn't work... I bet it's just really busy... excellent service though! So I got my Supra into the 'Unlimited' class now... 999bhp.. I'd say it's twice as quick as the Enzo in PGR3... and the handling is, well, interesting.... better for race tyres is what I'd say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 My pics... looking slightly bashed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickeh Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I never knew you had to change your tires, I found at 28 laps and 47 minutes into a 30 lap endurance race I have a 1000bhp R34 Skyline! Haven't modded the Supra yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't modded the Supra yet. you can turn that option off, aswell as needing to re-fuel. does it tell you when to change? or do they just go pop...

Daston Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 You can use the up arrow on the D pad to see the ware levels love the super fast invisable pit stops though they managed to fix my seriously banged up car in 6 seconds! I am unsure how I feel about forza it seems to be the jack of all trades but dosnt master them all I feel the painting could be a lot better like being able to turn letters inside out or put them on windows or wings (if anyone has found a way let me know), pit stops are laufable the endurance races are the same length as a normal race. I was expecting Spa 12hr or Le Mans 24hr not 42 laps! Also the damage seems a little unrealistic as well managed to spin and got hit at a good pace only for my car to be slightly dented and smoke a little (ok I had problems pulling away but my car should have been tottaled). I may be picky but the game seems far from being a "sim" as they claim it to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I would go as far as to say it's 'nearly' as good as Gran Turismo.. that said I'm trying not to compare it... just really enjoying playing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyknox Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 does it tell you when to change? or do they just go pop... If you press the left shoulder button it shows car damage, press it again and it displays tyre temperatures and wear I think. IMO I think it's better than Gran Turismo...the cars just seem more fun to drive and the 360 controller is so much easier to use for progressive power and braking.

edd_t Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 yeh i got it havnt had a chance to play it much yet. will be online tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickeh Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 you can turn that option off, aswell as needing to re-fuel. does it tell you when to change? or do they just go pop... Nah they just went pop... no warning. I only found out about the wear indicators when I mashed the buttons in a rage afterwards. The rears still had 30% tread so it should have let me bloody move, it was 4WD. It was kind of like writing an entire essay then your computer switching off just before you were about to save, so me and Forza are having a little time apart at the moment.
